Klagenfurt Self-Guided Detective Murder Mystery Game

About this experience

In Klagenfurt the case opens at the Lindwurmbrunnen, the dragon fountain in the middle of town, and runs from there into the old centre. The route crosses Alter Platz, passes the Landhaus and reaches Klagenfurt Cathedral before doubling back through the arcaded courtyards. It is a detective game on foot, played at walking pace with a phone in hand. Everything sits within a few hundred metres here, and the centre is flat and largely free of traffic, which makes Klagenfurt an easy place to play with children in tow. Up to four people form one team on one phone; a bigger party simply splits into several teams that set out at the same moment. Couples, colleagues and groups of friends all fit the format, and a solo player is at no disadvantage. There is no guide and no fixed departure, so the day stays yours. How to play.

Break for lunch, come back to the trail afterwards, and settle the case in the streets of…
